Caught red-handed using GOP talking points, Fox caves with apology ... for typo

I used to drive a great deal across country. Before there were progressive radio alternatives I often listen to right-wing radio shows. Hey, I love politics and it was the only thing on. So from Limbaugh and crew to local folks like Rochesters local blowhard Bob Lonsberry, everyday I put myself through the torture and played the righty radio during my travels.

I often discovered a pattern of different righties on the radio addressing the same issues on the same day. I even noticed as this with the local righties. I often wondered how so many different right-wing radio talking heads would be talking about the same subject on the same day (usually it involved Clinton bashing back then).

I used to wonder if these righty talking heads were using the same script. The same "talking points" issued by the RNC. No, couldn't be.

Now it is discovered that I was right all along and they were getting their daily talking points from the RNC or some other GOP controlled group. And to think they laughed at Hillary when she claimed that her husband was being attacked by a huge "right-wing conspiracy". Funny, Hillary was right after all. - Robert
